Autovía A-54
The Autovía A-54 is a freeway in Spain. It connects Santiago de Compostela with its airport with junctions onto the N-550 (Road), N-550, N-634 (Road), N-634 and Lugo via N-547 (Road), N-547. This 4-lane newly designed freeway (U.K. motorway) began its construction process in February, 2009. It links Lugo and Santiago de Compostela (102 km). When complete, this infrastructure will allow traffic from outside Galicia to have an easy and safe access to the capital of Galicia (Santiago) and the central area of the Galician Rias. The current freeway alternative for traffic going from the central area of the province of Lugo to the Galicia Rias is following the A-6 toll-free freeway (Lugo-Coruña) to the junction with the AP-9 near Betanzos. From there, most vehicles use the Coruña-Santiago toll-freeway as a fast and safe way to reach the Rías. When the A-54 construction is complete, this route will not be used any longer. The A-54 is a toll-free freeway. References

Santiago De Compostela
Santiago de Compostela is the capital of the autonomous community of Galicia, in northwestern Spain. The city has its origin in the shrine of Saint James the Great, now the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, as the destination of the Way of St. James, a leading Catholic pilgrimage route since the 9th century. In 1985, the city's Old Town was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Santiago de Compostela has a very mild climate for its latitude with heavy winter rainfall courtesy of its relative proximity to the prevailing winds from Atlantic low-pressure systems. Toponym ''Santiago'' is the local Galician evolution of Vulgar Latin ''Sanctus Iacobus'' " Saint James". According to legend, ''Compostela'' derives from the Latin ''Campus Stellae'' (i.e., "field of the star"); it seems unlikely, however, that this phrase could have yielded the modern ''Compostela'' under normal evolution from Latin to Medieval Galician. Other etymologies derive the name from Latin ''compositum'', ...
